About

Learn more about our church by checking out our spotlight!

The Church in Cherkasy is pastored by Viktor with the support of his wife Nadiia. After becoming ordained in the Evangelical Presbyterian Church of Ukraine, Viktor moved to Cherkasy to plant a new church in 2007.

Because the economic situation in Ukraine during the war is very difficult, Viktor currently does not have employment outside the church. Together, Viktor and Nadiia are actively involved in the Christian Homeschooling movement in Ukraine, helping local families and conducting regular HS seminars. They are committed to Sunday services and ask people to pray that they could reach those who don’t know about our Lord through Bible Study groups. For several years, the church building provided shelter for refugees.

Currently, the church continues to support refugee families affiliated with it. Additionally, the church is prepared to welcome missionaries from the United States who are willing to assist in the development of Christianity in Cherkasy.

Viktor and Nadiia have been married for over three decades, and have two grown daughters: Kate and Paulina, and four adorable grandchildren.

Pray for

  • The protection of the church and city during air raid alerts. Since May 9th, the number of air raid sirens has significantly increased.
  • A deeper understanding of the essence of sin and its impact on our lives. We continue our study in the church-wide Bible group on “Gospel Christianity.”
  • Our three homeschooled grandchildren, who are currently taking their final exams for the school year.

Praise for

  • A wonderful conference and activity camp held for 30 homeschooled children. The theme of the event was “Two are better than one” (Eccl 4:9). All the participants had a great time and benefited greatly.
  • The safe arrival of our friend from Canada to Cherkasy. It was a wonderful gift of a visit during the war, and his help was instrumental in carrying off the conference.
  • The opportunity to freely preach Christ and hold church services.
